Not sure what it means . I don’t need any sources , or names of companies I can get stuff from I just want to know if I can legally do it.

Ok gotcha . Thought there Was a process to itWe don't know. No one knows. The AG is making shit up, and the courts need to decide this answer for you.
Do a bunch of reading and research here and then do what you feel comfortable with, knowing the risks. I am not losing sleep worrying about her coming after us. I don't think she really wants to fight that battle. She (the latest in our string of corrupt AGs) just wants to exert control on the supply side, IMO.Not sure what it means .

I have a Preban from windham already . I just wanna build one with a complete lower and an upper .Just go buy a preban rifle....much easier.
As for the most part the only regulated piece is the lower reciever. So on its face anything else is legal to buy. Finding what you want and places that might ship these unregulated pieces of metal is the fun part.
I would be more worried what/how/who/where to get a "legal" lower.
reading this makes me not even want to attempt it.It will never be 100% legal unless its a dedicated .22lr build. Find a dealer to sell or transfer you a stripped lower - which is not a firearm under MA Law but is under Federal Law or get an 80% receiver kit. Order the rest of the parts offline. Make sure the barrel has no threaded muzzle or bayonet lug. Fixed butt stock. Build it. Now comes the fun part;
You have to register the completed lower receiver within 7 days. If you get caught with it you can be charged with possession of an unregistered firearm and could also be charged under Healey's edict of illegal posession of an assault weapon and manufacturing of an illegal assault weapon - all 3 charges being felonies with 5-10 year sentences. So even registering it would be outing yourself. Your best chance at that point is to register it as a multi-caliber or .22lr with a barrel length of 0.00" because the barrel is part of the upper and not legally not part of the firearm itself and no, that doesn't make it an SBR until it is married with an upper that has a barrel length less than 14 inches. If its a risk you're willing to take, all I can say is: Keep it secret. Keep it safe. Keep your head down and your nose clean.
But understand, there may be consequences. If you carry a pistol and are forced to use it, you can bet your ass that the cops will come to your house and take every last gun and bullet that you have and chances are they'll try and screw you with safe storage laws but then they'll happen upon your unregistered black-killy rifle and you will be in quite the pickle - all a result of using your firearm in justifiable self-defense. Welcome to the People's Republic - Enjoy your stay and possible prison sentence for exercising your God given rights.
yep...my attitude.Do a bunch of reading and research here and then do what you feel comfortable with, knowing the risks. I am not losing sleep worrying about her coming after us..

I ment a pre ban we know is legal not the Fhurers ban/preban shit.I have a Preban from windham already . I just wanna build one with a complete lower and an upper .
There are many ways the lower could have been legally possessed in MA before the date without being "registered". I would love for her to go after someone for this, but it isn't going to happen.You'd need a lower which was already "registered in-state" prior to 7/20/2016.
Well done. Thought this was the case also, but I really I don't pay close enough attention to her silly edict to worry about it.What does this mean ?https://www.northeastshooters.com/xen/attachments/196863/
Basically better off just overpaying for someone else’s $700-800 AR?Exactly...
